  • Carlo Acutis was an Italian teenager who loved video games and spread the word of God using the internet. He died of leukemia in 2006 and has since been credited with two miracles. Pope Francis could convene a meeting of cardinals to affirm Acutis’ canonization by the end of 2025. NBC News’ Marissa Parra reports on what this could mean for the church’s attempts to recruit the next generation.

      A girl fell off her bike and suffered head trauma that required brain surgery and was given a low chance of survival. Her mother and the mother’s secretary prayed to Carlo, and the mother made a pilgrimage to Carlo’s tomb 6 days after the accident to pray there. That same day, the daughter began to breath spontaneously, and 10 days after that, a CAT scan showed that the hemorrhage had disappeared, and she was moved to rehabilitation therapy about a month later.

    As a stage 4 breast cancer patient, it's hard to believe in miracles. I know of women half my age with new babies being diagnosed with this disease. Small children too. It's never "fair." There's never "enough" time with our loved ones. We're all here on borrowed time, and it's an honor to spend even a day alive in the universe. We can only help in this lifetime. It's cruel to think God chooses me to have good results from my treatment instead of countless others dying from the same diseases? Why am I more "worthy" of this? It makes no sense to think God favors and blesses only some of us like that.

      According to another comment, at least one of the miracles occurred after his death- his mother & her assistant prayed to Carlo regarding a child’s recent traumatic brain injury as a result of a bike accident, and the same day his mom made a pilgrimage to his tomb and prayed for healing, the girl began to spontaneously breathe on her own. Then 10 days later, her CT scans showed no sign of hemorrhage, and she was released from the hospital and into rehabilitation about a month later.

    I understand comments complaining about abuses within the Church, but I do not understand hatred towards a religion. No matter what religion, there should be no hate towards it. I cannot believe how much hatred comments there are towards Catholic’s beliefs. Many are misinformed too. It is sickening. People need to do research. With an organization around for 2000 years, there will be scandals, but that does not take away from the right Catholics have to practice their religion without constant hate. I cannot imagine any other religion having this much hate.

      That is a weak argument. To say that "the devil wants us to come away from God so saying that God is a false idol is a very easy way of him destroying our faith," doesn't refute the fact that Jesus or God isn't an idol. This is a circular argument that leads nowhere toward natural truths.

      Good point. Sadly the current pope is the very antithesis of what a pope should be. He'll use anything to get more people into the church. He'll never act on the churches being burned down though or help persecuted Christians around the world but he'll kiss nigers feet. Only God / Jesus deserve to be worshipped.

      Saints are not to be worshipped, but asked for intercession. You're basically asking them to pray for you. "the twenty-four elders [the leaders of the people of God in heaven] fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and with golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints" (Rev. 5:8). “An angel came and stood at the altar [in heaven] with a golden censer; and he was given much incense to mingle with the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar before the throne; and the smoke of the incense rose with the prayers of the saints from the hand of the angel before God" (Rev. 8:3-4).

    People always think to become a saint you have to do heroic deeds of great import Like Gandalf, Aragorn fighting of Evil that can destroy the world where in fact the most unremarkable person can be one just like Frodo or a Sam. Lol (I apologize for the Lord the rings comparisons). Saint Therese of Liseoux, the youngest Doctor of the church, expounded this on her philosophy of the little way. Doing the smallest actions with great love is the path to Sainthood. in non christian /catholic terms You don't have to wait for earth shattering events to seize the opportunity for greatness start with the smallest things. Don't let perfection get in the way of what is good enough.

    It is likely that those who witnessed the miracles also prayed to Jesus Christ, even to the Blessed Mother, perhaps to the other saints, too. How did they conclude that it was Carlo who did the miracles? I have nothing against the boy. He seems very nice to me. I just find this move by the church uncomfortable and strange. If that is their standard, then there are many others who should be declared saints immediately.
